:{{re|Tamfang}} I'm always open to constructive criticism and proposals, but I don't see any of them here. What's the point of this new thread? I mean... Glad to know you're amused, but let me know when you grow up and you have something contructive to say.

Pending changes reviewer granted

Hello. Your account has been granted the "pending changes reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on pages protected by pending changes. The list of articles awaiting review is located at Special:PendingChanges, while the list of articles that have pending changes protection turned on is located at Special:StablePages.

Being granted reviewer rights neither grants you status nor changes how you can edit articles. If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

Template editor granted

Your account has been granted the "templateeditor" user permission, allowing you to edit templates and modules that have been protected with template protection. It also allows you to bypass the title blacklist, giving you the ability to create and edit editnotices. Before you use this user right, please read Wikipedia:Template editor and make sure you understand its contents. In particular, you should read the section on wise template editing and the criteria for revocation.

You can use this user right to perform maintenance, answer edit requests, and make any other simple and generally uncontroversial edits to templates, modules, and edinotices. You can also use it to enact more complex or controversial edits, after those edits are first made to a test sandbox, and their technical reliability as well as their consensus among other informed editors has been established. If you are willing to process edit requests on templates and modules, keep in mind that you are taking responsibility to ensure the edits have consensus and are technically sound.

This user right gives you access to some of Wikipedia's most important templates and modules; it is critical that you edit them wisely and that you only make edits that are backed up by consensus. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password.

If you do not want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time.

If you were granted the permission on a temporary basis you will need to re-apply for the permission a few days before it expires including in your request a permalink to the discussion where it was granted and a {{ping}} for the administrator who granted the permission. You can find the permalink in your rights log.

Happy template editing! Primefac (talk) 08:33, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Qwerfjkl (bot). I have automatically detected that this edit performed by you, on the page Sophie Lewis (author), may have introduced referencing errors. They are as follows:

  • A bare URL error. References show this error when one of the URL-containing parameters cannot be paired with an associated title. Please edit the article to add the appropriate title parameter to the reference. (Fix | Ask for help)

Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 10:12, 14 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Removing spaces from citation templates

Please don't do this. Many editors prefer spaces in citation templates. This is unnecessary, potentially disruptive, and violates WP:REFVAR, which says that the editors who established the citation style are the ones who set it for the article. I prefer spaces, and you didn't discuss on the talk page and get consensus before unilaterally removing them. In generally, unnecessary edits should not be made. Also, your edit summary was misleading, saying you were correcting a typo. That is also discouraged. Skyerise (talk) 10:57, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Skyerise: WP:REFVAR is about the citation style, that does not refer to superfluous spaces. Your recent rollback at Guardian angel is a clear violation of the guidelines about typos and formatting operated via WP:AWB/T, and it will be reverted. Refrain from such disruptive actions, thanks. Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 11:06, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So in my opinion these spaces are NOT superfluous. Drmies (talk) 21:26, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
B.S. Now, you are edit-warring. Get consensus on the talk page per bold, revert, discuss. Skyerise (talk) 11:12, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Skyerise: Watch your language and respect the guidelines, otherwise further measures will be taken. Thanks. Have a good day. Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 11:15, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is nothing wrong with my language. Many editors do not use visual editing tools. We rely on the templates being easily readable and editable by having spaces in citation templates. Per WP:IAR (ignore all rules), it is completely within my rights to revert edits that make an article harder to edit. Go complain about it wherever you want, you are simply wrong and any such complaint is likely to WP:BOOMARANG. Skyerise (talk) 11:19, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Est. 2021, you're presumably aware of WP:ANI#Pointless edit-war potentially breaking guidelines, having started it, but I don't think anyone has pinged you or notified you since discussion has shifted to focus on your conduct. Please respond there at your earliest convenience. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 16:15, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Guardian angel shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Skyerise (talk) 11:21, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Skyerise, I haven't looked at this--maybe it's the same problem in Existence. Est. 2021, spaces in templates are NOT typos. I put one after every parameter to make sure that a template is not one long single line. Please don't do that anymore. Drmies (talk) 21:25, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Haha, now I see the section above. Drmies (talk) 21:25, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • @Drmies: apparently they did it to 356 articles before I happened to notice it on one of my watchlisted articles. Then they took themselves to ANI, saving me the trouble! Skyerise (talk) 21:29, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      • That's literally what you proposed me to do in the previous thread, so yeah, I'm glad you boys are having fun. I just answered y'all on the noticeboard. Goodnight. Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 01:18, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
        • Was this nonsense fun for you, Skyerise? Est. 2021, I think us boys are both kind of scratching our heads over the usefulness of your edits, considering the time we spent on Yamantaka. Seriously, if you're going to be picky about curly quotes, be picky about double curly quotes too. Drmies (talk) 02:14, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
          • @Drmies: I don't pick anything at all, curly quotes are automatically fixed by AWB without external settings needed. Do your homeworks and be more mature. Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 02:19, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
            • I don't think he's getting that using automated tools doesn't exempt one from WP:BRD nor has he acknowledged on the ANI thread that automated edits should never be restored after a revert and certainly shouldn't be edit warred over. I suspect if he doesn't explicitly acknowledge that there, he's likely to be blocked. And no, that's not nonsense. Skyerise (talk) 10:08, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

whatever floats your boat

I am amused that your edit to Languages of Italy consists almost entirely of adding invisible spaces to subheads and removing them everywhere else. —Tamfang (talk) 06:55, 22 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
